The upcoming Super Mario Bros. movie is launching in April, and it sounds like it’s nearly finished! Keegan-Michael Key, who voices a character in the film, recently revealed he’s already completed his recording sessions, suggesting the movie is on track for release after the 2025 movie schedule is finalized.
Honestly, the finale left me a little cold. It felt like they went with the most obvious choice – Rick doing the big shootout – and it just didn’t land. Plus, some of the character motivations, especially with Gaitok, Rick, and even Chelsea, felt really off. The season wasn’t *bad* overall, we had some genuinely good storylines, but the ending kind of threw it all away and made a lot of what happened earlier feel pointless. It just didn’t make a lot of sense, and it was hard to really buy into it.
Details about the plot of *The Batman: Part II* are still under wraps, but as with every Batman movie, fans are especially curious about who the next villain will be. While director Matt Reeves was working on the story, rumors circulated about potential enemies for Robert Pattinson’s Batman, but nothing has been officially confirmed. Interestingly, before the first film came out, Reeves posted a picture on Twitter of costumes from the classic 1960s *Batman* series with Adam West – a subtle hint about the villains that many fans missed at the time. Reeves has continued to playfully tease future villains, giving fans clues to figure out who might appear in the sequel.
Currently, only Danny, the school mascot (played by Frankie A. Rodriguez), knows the truth: Glen Powell’s character is actually former football player Russ Holliday. But for the show to work, I believe Ricky (Perry Mattfeld) needs to find out Russ isn’t who he pretends to be – that is, ‘Chad Powers.’
Even though Ghost of Yotei has already launched and is likely Sony’s most significant game this year, several other major third-party titles are still on the way.
Cillian Murphy stars as Steve in Netflix’s upcoming 2025 release of the same name. The character is a teacher who consistently uses a voice recorder to document his thoughts and feelings – a technique that effectively reveals his inner world. During an interview with Murphy, I asked him about Steve’s frequent use of the recorder, and specifically about the meaning behind his final recording, which prompted a very thoughtful and personal response.
There’s a good chance we’ll be able to stream *Big Brother* online again soon, if some former players aren’t joking around. It looks like a new season during the winter months is planned, but it won’t be quite like anything we’ve seen before.
It’s easy to focus on the most popular anime coming out in 2025, but that only tells part of the story. While those big hits are worth watching, there’s a lot more great anime from the year that deserves attention. Many solid shows flew under the radar, and true fans should seek them out for a hidden gem.
In a recent interview, Elisabeth Moss said she felt creatively fulfilled with the final episode of *The Handmaid’s Tale* and how the series concluded, stating, “Yes, I do.” The show followed June Osborne’s difficult journey to rescue her daughter Hannah from Gilead, and some viewers were disappointed when she ultimately failed.
Even though critics and viewers haven’t given *Billionaires’ Bunker* rave reviews (it currently has a 57% rating), it’s become a huge hit on the platform, landing in the top two shows overall. It’s important to remember that the score is based on a limited number of critic reviews (only eight so far), but it has been steadily improving since the show premiered last week. Think of it as a blend of *Silo* and *Paradise*, with a touch of *Lost* – it offers plenty for fans of science fiction and suspense, with lots of unexpected twists. While it might not be as critically acclaimed as *Silo*, *Billionaires’ Bunker* delivers strong acting and keeps you on the edge of your seat, making it a good choice for those who enjoy character-focused stories about survival and a new spin on the post-apocalyptic genre.
